In the past six weeks, I've spent 28 days under my Airstream... Do those count?

Sadly, only 45 days last year. Now the trailer is in storage for the winter and I am counting down the days until it is time to bring it home. My husband finally retired, but aging parents tie us down.

Thumbs up

Forces beyond my control have kept "Cloudsplitter" on the pad for the last year.

I've been Bench Streaming here just to keep from leaving planet Earth.

my turn

For me, still working 50 hours week. I get in at least one 4 day a month March-Nov. I also had some longer week trips, so 50-55 days/nights this past year. MPJ

Between living in the frozen north and neither of us retired yet....about 35 - 60 nights a year in the AS. Realize, it is winterized and in storage from mid-November to early March.

Been working on my AS for about 3 years. I am doing a full-monte, and hope to be done in the summer, and launch in the fall for a full-timing, Cristopher Columbusish experience. Hoping to experience new geography, climates, and states of mind.

So 100% web surfing, 0% travel...so far...although, I may have fallen asleep under the AS while riveting the belly pan.

Sounds very cool. What's your typical landing spot then?

All of it is valuable, refreshing and rewarding. I honestly think that I wouldn't enjoy the trailer half so much if it didn't give me something to tinker on and a bunch of great people to yack to about it.
I get that. It's your social media. I personally don't spend much time on the forum, but then I don't do Facebook either... Two completely different animals - one insightful - the other well....Just not the way I want to spend my time.

No help now.

Since March 2013, geeee, lemme think...

More than about 40 days... We have family spread around...Grandkritters especially and their parental units don't have the "accommodations" the AS allows.

Grandkritters love "camping" with NaNa and PopPop.

I visit here to learn, connect with good folks ..
